She had tried to lose more weight, but her back rolls just got worse. She went to see Dr. J. Timothy Katzen, a famous doctor in Beverly Hills, California, to find an answer. After a full medical exam, Dr. Katzen suggested a horizontal back lift and back liposuction. The whole process of changing the body took five hours. This new method successfully changed the shape of the back. It took her two weeks to go back to her desk job. She wore her compression suit for six weeks. She applied silicone cream and silicone strips to the incisions for nine months. Because she was dedicated to taking care of her incisions, her scars were barely noticeable. The back lift surgery made a huge difference in how she looked. It not only made her look very different, but it also made her feel better about herself.
